We are not against government. We simply maintain that government begins in the family. Good governance recognizes the first government of the family and follows the social ordering and good governance principle of subsidiarity by deferring to the smallest governing unit; not usurping but empowering and helping families. The current overly federalized approach to education in the United States is failing. It is time for a change and parental (school) choice is the change that is needed.

If I sit down at the government’s table, I have no grounds for complaining about the menu. What it feeds me, I must swallow.

Responsible parents save themselves a lot of frustration and grief, by educating their own kids.

Parents do have choices. They can enroll their kids in public schools. They can enroll their kids in private schools. They can home school.
